"Our reinforcements have arrived! Resist. Luo Yi had heard about Su You from Wei Ting and Wang Qi countless times, so as soon as he heard the earth-shattering sound pass, he immediately opened his mouth to boost his morale.

In the middle army formation of the Youzhou Army, there were more than 1,000 soldiers who originally belonged to the soldiers led by Wang Qi, and they once sat on Su You's warship to expedition to Liaodong City, so they were no strangers to the sound of artillery.

After they heard Luo Yi's shout at this time, they immediately told their colleagues about the horror of Su You's artillery.

The terrifying combat effectiveness of the Su You troops greatly increased the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army of the Youzhou Army ten miles away, and they finally withstood the oppression of the enemy army for the first time and even began to counterattack.

Seeing this, Luo Yi was grateful to Su You and hoped that he would arrive at the battlefield as soon as possible.

Of course, what Luo Yi hopes most is to rely on his own heavy cavalry to decide the outcome of this battlefield, and the most ideal scenario is naturally Su You to help him clean up the battlefield or chase down the rout

However, Luo Yi's greatest expectation was that when Su You's cannon rang out, he encountered Waterloo at the same time.

Xue Wanjun was already dead determined to break Dou Jiande's Chinese army tent, even if there was a sea of swords and fires in front of him, it couldn't stop his heart to move forward bravely, not to mention just the sound of cannons coming from ten miles away?

The reality is that there is more than enough heart but not enough power.

When Xue Wanjun rushed to a distance of only half a mile from Dou Jiande's Chinese army's tent, he suddenly found himself rushing into the enemy's trap.

Dou Jiande's large tent was built in a swamp, and he didn't dig a trap, but just took advantage of the reasonable terrain.

To be precise, Dou Jiande laid out this bureau after choosing the camp, and his Chinese army tent was set up in a swamp with a radius of about three miles; After laying a layer of straw on top of this swamp, one can walk on it without any problems.

But if you ride a war horse and walk on this land within a radius of three miles, there will be a big problem, let alone a galloping heavy horse?

After Xue Wanjun's four hooves fell into the quagmire, he didn't know what to do next.

Heavy cavalry had few weaknesses on the plains, but riverside and swampy areas were taboo, where there was often a foot or so of silt on the surface.

If there is still mud under the silt, the speed of the war horse under the crotch will definitely be limited; If there is hard ground underneath the mud, there is a high chance that the horse will slip

In any case, you can't rush anymore, or you will definitely fall into the enemy's encirclement, or you will be killed or wounded by the stampede in the rear!

The horse under Xue Wanjun's crotch seemed to have some spirituality, and after sliding twice, it stood still, and at this time Xue Wanjun glanced left and right at his team; Unexpectedly, I found that the original fan shape quickly became a straight line, and the soldiers on both sides rushed to the front instead.

"Kill!"

Xue Wanjun didn't see behind him, in fact, dozens of horses had fallen to the ground behind him at this moment, and the same number of horses had tripped under the vicious circle; Even if the knight who fell to the ground was not trampled to death, it would not be difficult for him to get on his horse again.

If Xue Wanjun saw the tragic situation behind him, maybe he wouldn't have shouted this word, or maybe he could have guessed the situation behind him, and the reason why he didn't watch it was because he wanted to escape!

In any case, the Lord gave the order to advance, and the soldiers had no reason to retreat.

But the heavy cavalry has lost its speed, what is left?

The hundreds of heavy cavalry on both sides had already rushed into the enemy formation in front of Xue Wanjun, and they naturally caused a certain amount of damage, but around the Chinese army tent defended by 20,000 people, what did two or three hundred heavy cavalry count?

In front of the Chinese army's tent, which Xue Wanjun was only fifty paces away, Dou Jiande personally commanded the battle, first ordering the soldiers to pull out their shields, and then using a hard crossbow to deal a devastating blow to these invading heavy cavalry.

Poor heavy cavalry that rushed to Dou Jiande before the battle was only two or three hundred, and poor Xue Wanjun and Yan Yun's eighteen cavalry did not even cross this swamp.

It's only a mile away, less than a hundred steps, but it determines life and death!

Of the more than 1,800 cavalry, there were only four or five hundred people who could rush into the ten zhang around the big tent of the Chinese army, but these people came one after another, and they did not form a deterrent lethality, and almost all of them were full of crossbow arrows without rushing into anything

More heavy cavalry still died in the vicious swamp, they either fell to the ground with their horses' front hooves, or fell into the quagmire and lost their speed and could not approach the enemy, including Xue Wanjun and the remaining sixteen of Yan Yun's eighteen cavalry, they were shot and killed by Dou Jiande's army one by one like targets.

In the end, the heavy cavalry that broke away from the battlefield and retreated with all their bodies was less than 500 horsemen.

Dou Jiande also chose the geographical advantage, and broke the heavy cavalry that Luo Yi was proud of in one fell swoop, which also meant that the balance of victory fell to Dou Jiande's side.

There was no need for anyone to report it, Luo Yi, who had been paying attention to the heavy cavalry, saw their defeat from the telescope for the first time.

Luo Yi's brain buzzed and almost fell off his horse.

After defeating the heavy cavalry in Youzhou, Dou Jiande finally pulled out the camp and advanced forward, witnessing the killing of the heavy cavalry that Luo Yi was most proud of, and his morale was extremely high.

And because of the advantage in numbers, Dou Jian's German army finally pressed up with a thunderous momentum.

"Can it go on? When will Su You come? While thinking about this question, Luo Yi turned his head to look at the east, and finally found that the sails of the ship that covered the sky and the sun were slowly approaching

"Fight and retreat, our reinforcements are by the river!" Luo Yi gave an order to Xue Wanche, and also gave this order to Wei Ting and other infantry generals.

If it is only a few dozen or hundreds of soldiers, the attack and retreat can probably be done like an arm's finger, but when the number of commanders exceeds a thousand, the thoughts of the soldiers cannot be grasped; Because of the arrival of the Su cruise fleet, Luo Yi's army thought of retreating, but it was obviously impossible to retreat while fighting.

The order to retreat while fighting only lasted for a quarter of an hour, and the soldiers on Luo Yi's side completely gave up the battle and fled to the river!

At this time, only more than 2,000 light cavalry led by Xue Wanche remained, the problem was that there were too many archers in Dou Jiande's army, and it was not easy for them to exert their combat effectiveness.

Looking at the defeat of Luo Yi's army, Dou Jiande also issued an order to "pursue with all his might", and he had no time to care about how the 3,000 cavalry commanded by Su Lie could go like a meat bun beating a dog.

At this time, Su You really entered the battlefield, but he did not dare to order the warships to dock, but chose to let the ships loaded with artillery anchor in the river; Other ships transporting soldiers and horses were looking for a place to dock at any time to attack Dou Jian's army.

The fleeing soldiers finally approached, and they were only fifty, thirty, and twenty feet from the river

Correspondingly, the soldiers pursued by Dou Jiande gradually approached, and their forward troops were only thirty or forty zhang away from the river, and the large army was a hundred zhang away

"It's time for us to make an appearance" After Su You said this with a sneer, he immediately gave the order for a full-scale attack.

This time, Su You brought a total of 500 artillery pieces, and of course these guns could not all be placed on the same shipside, so in fact, there were only 25 guns in the all-out attack.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

The muffled sound finally resounded across the battlefield again, and unlike two moments ago, they not only heard a loud noise, but also saw the real spray effect for the first time.

When they looked at the tongues of fire and gunpowder smoke erupting from Su You's more than ten ships in front of them, the rout soldiers thought that Su You was attacking indiscriminately against the enemy and me, but they immediately realized that the hundreds of black iron balls had fallen towards the enemy behind

After the cannon rang out, the deafening sound almost made everyone on the battlefield stop, and they didn't know where Su You's shell lethality came from before the shell exploded.

The next second, the shell fell to the ground, followed by a deafening explosion.

Of the nearly two hundred and fifty bombs, a very small number fell on Luo Yi's rout, and more fell into the formation of Dou Jiande's side chasing deserters

After the explosion, there were dozens or hundreds of huge pits on the battlefield, and next to the huge pits were the stumps and severed arms of the soldiers.

But no one made a sound, whether it was killed, injured or survivors.

After the bomb exploded, the collective silence on the battlefield was lost, and they also froze their pace, and those who fled no longer ran away, and those who pursued and killed did not dare to take a single step

"One more round! The ships behind were ready to dock, Wang Bodang and Zhao Hu led people to chase and kill the rout, Zhang Junli ordered the soldiers to take a good look at Luo Yi's people and not let them get on the boat! ”

Su You ordered, and two hundred and fifty artillery pieces rang out in unison again, but this time the effect was much worse than the last time.

Dou Jiande had not read Liu Zongyuan's "The Donkey of Qian", but he soon discovered that Su You's artillery attack method was very similar to that of catapults, which meant that this artillery had a maximum range and a minimum range. - As long as you stay out of the way, or rush closer, you are safe.

The question is, now rush to the river, or just retreat?

Dou Jiande's question doesn't seem to be a problem, because he alone can't represent these soldiers in front of him, how can these people in front of him have the intention of killing under the deterrence of Su You's weapons of mass destruction?

However, with Su You's support, Luo Yi's side finally stabilized his footing and made a defensive posture.

But it's just a defense, and if you take a step forward, you'll probably be blown up, so they won't be stupid enough to move forward!

After a brief confrontation, the cavalry led by Zhao Hu and Wang Bodang finally disembarked one after another; And Su You also decisively sent a message to Luo Yi, saying that he would not fire artillery again, and asked Luo Yi's cavalry to prepare to attack Dou Jiande's army.

After only a short hesitation, Dou Jiande gave the order to retreat, and Su Lie finally arrived with more than a thousand cavalry.

Su Lie's arrival will not increase Dou Jiande's chances of victory, and what he faces will be another defeat, because at this time, the cavalry commanded by Wang Bodang and Zhao Hu has been lined up.

Wang Bodang led 3,000 light cavalry, and Zhao Hu commanded 1,000 heavy cavalry, these 4,000 people had nearly 5,500 horses, and the average number of heavy cavalry horses was 2.5.

Coupled with the more than 2,000 light cavalry led by Xue Wanche, the combined army of Su You and Luo Yi had nearly 8,000 war horses, while Dou Jiande's side, including the war horses of the heavy cavalry that had just captured Xue Wanjun's command, was only 2,000.

In the face of the pursuit of the cavalry, Dou Jiande's soldiers must have wished that their parents did not give birth to a pair of legs for them.
